Abstract
CYP3A5 is the primary CYP3A subfamily enzyme expressed in the human kidney and its aberrant expression may contribute to a broad spectrum of renal disorders. Pharmacogenetic studies have reported inconsistent linkages between CYP3A5 expression and hypertension, however, most investigators have considered CYP3A5*1 as active and CYP3A5*3 as an inactive allele. Observations of gender specific differences in CYP3A5*3/*3 protein expression suggest additional complexity in gene regulation that may underpin an environmentally responsive role for CYP3A5 in renal function. Reconciliation of the molecular mechanism driving conditional restoration of functional CYP3A5*3 expression from alternatively spliced transcripts, and validation of a morpholino-based approach for selectively suppressing renal CYP3A5 expression, is the focus of this work. Morpholinos targeting a cryptic splice acceptor created by the CYP3A5*3 mutation in intron 3 rescued functional CYP3A5 expression in vitro, and salt-sensitive cellular mechanisms regulating splicing and conditional expression of CYP3A5*3 transcripts are reported. The potential for a G-quadruplex (G4) in intron 3 to mediate restored splicing to exon 4 in CYP3A5*3 transcripts was also investigated. Finally, a proximal tubule microphysiological system (PT-MPS) was used to evaluate the safety profile of morpholinos in proximal tubule epithelial cells, highlighting their potential as a therapeutic platform for the treatment of renal disease.

Abstract
CYP3A5 metabolizes endogenous substrates and ~30% of prescription drugs. The CYP3A5 gene contains an active CYP3A5*1 allele, and a non-functional version, the CYP3A5*3 (rs776746), with consequences for drug therapeutic responses and side effects. Both CYP3A5*1 and *3 have been associated with hypertension. The frequency of CYP3A5*3 varies between populations of different ancestries, with Europeans having the highest allele frequency (> 90%). Given the importance of CYP3A5*3 in drug response and hypertension development, the aim of the present study was to evaluate the frequency of this polymorphism and its association with hypertension in vulnerable indigenous populations in Mexico. A total of 372 subjects were recruited from eight ethnic groups in Northwest Mexico. Systolic (SBP), diastolic (DBP), and median (MBP) blood pressures as well as body mass index (BMI) were measured. Ancestry was evaluated through STR analysis, and the CYP3A5*1/*3 polymorphisms were identified using real-time PCR with TaqMan® probes. Higher frequencies of CYP3A5*1 and *3 were observed in groups with higher (>90%) and lower (<90%) Amerindian ancestry, respectively. The CYP3A5*3/*3 genotype was more frequent in indigenous women with higher SBP and DBP values. On the other hand, the *1 allele showed a protective effect against both high SBP (OR, 0.38; 95% CI, 0.17-0.83, p = 0.001) and DBP (OR 0.38, 95% CI 0.18-0.81, p = 0.007) in women. This association remained significant after adjusting for BMI and age for diastolic (OR, 0.38; 95% CI, 0.17-0.84, p = 0.011) and systolic BP (OR, 0.33; 95% CI, 0.15-0.76, p = 0.005) BP levels in women. Thus, the frequency of CYP3A5*3 varies between groups and seems to depend on ancestry, and CYP3A5*1 decreases the risk of hypertension in Mexican indigenous women. This population analysis of CYP3A5*1/*3 has profound implications not only for the susceptibility to diseases, such as hypertension, but also for safer drug administration regimens, assuring better therapeutic responses and fewer side effects.

Abstract
Hypertension is a common side effect of calcineurin inhibitors (CNIs), which are drugs used to prevent rejection after transplantation. Hypertension after kidney transplantation has been associated with earlier graft failure and higher cardiovascular mortality in the recipient. Recent data indicate that enzymes and transporters involved in CNI pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, including CYP3A5, ABCB1, WNK4 and SPAK, are also associated with salt-sensitive hypertension. These insights raise the question whether polymorphisms in the genes encoding these proteins increase the risk of CNI-induced hypertension. Predicting who is at risk for CNI-induced hypertension may be useful for when selecting specific interventions, including dietary salt restriction, thiazide diuretics or a CNI-free immunosuppressive regimen. This review aims to explore the pharmacogenetics of CNI-induced hypertension, highlighting the knowns and unknowns.

Abstract
Hypertension affects approximately 1 billion people worldwide. Owing to population aging, hypertension-related cardiovascular burden is expected to rise in the near future. In addition to genetic variants influencing the blood pressure response to antihypertensive drugs, several genes encoding for drug-metabolizing or -transporting enzymes have been associated with blood pressure and/or hypertension in humans (e.g., ACE, CYP1A2, CYP3A5, ABCB1 and MTHFR) regardless of drug treatment. These genes are also involved in the metabolism and transport of endogenous substances and their effects may be modified by selected environmental factors, such as diet or lifestyle. However, little is currently known on the complex interplay between environmental factors, endogenous factors, genetic variants and drugs on blood pressure control. This review will discuss the respective role of population-based primary prevention and personalized medicine for arterial hypertension, taking a pharmacogenomics' perspective focusing on selected pharmacogenes.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to characterize and utilize MDCK cell line expressing CYP3A4 and P-glycoprotein as an in vitro model for evaluating drug-herb and drug-drug of abuse interactions. MDCK cell line simultaneously expressing P-gp and CYP3A4 (MMC) was developed and characterized by using expression and activity studies. Cellular transport study of 200 μM cortisol was performed to determine their combined activity. The study was carried across MDCK-WT, MDCK-MDR1 and MMC cell lines. Similar studies were also carried out in the presence of 50 μM naringin and 3 μM morphine. Samples were analyzed by HPLC for drug and its CYP3A4 metabolite. PCR, qPCR and Western blot studies confirmed the enhanced expression of the proteins in the transfected cells. The Vivid CYP3A4 assay and ketoconazole inhibition studies further confirmed the presence of active protein. Apical to basal transport of cortisol was found to be 10- and 3-fold lower in MMC as compared to MDCK-WT and MDCK-MDR1 respectively. Higher amount of metabolite was formed in MMC than in MDCK-WT, indicating enhanced expression of CYP3A4. Highest cortisol metabolite formation was observed in MMC cell line due to the combined activities of CYP3A4 and P-gp. Transport of cortisol increased 5-fold in the presence of naringin in MMC and doubled in MDCK-MDR1. Cortisol transport in MMC was significantly lower than that in MDCK-WT in the presence of naringin. The permeability increased 3-fold in the presence of morphine, which is a weaker inhibitor of CYP3A4. Formation of 6β-hydroxy cortisol was found to decrease in the presence of morphine and naringin. This new model cell line with its enhanced CYP3A4 and P-gp levels in addition to short culture time can serve as an invaluable model to study drug-drug interactions. This cell line can also be used to study the combined contribution of efflux transporter and metabolizing enzymes toward drug-drug interactions.

Abstract
Pharmacogenomics is a field with origins in the study of monogenic variations in drug metabolism in the 1950s. Perhaps because of these historical underpinnings, there has been an intensive investigation of 'hepatic pharmacogenes' such as CYP450s and liver drug metabolism using pharmacogenomics approaches over the past five decades. Surprisingly, kidney pathophysiology, attendant diseases and treatment outcomes have been vastly under-studied and under-theorized despite their central importance in maintenance of health, susceptibility to disease and rational personalized therapeutics. Indeed, chronic kidney disease (CKD) represents an increasing public health burden worldwide, both in developed and developing countries. Patients with CKD suffer from high cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, which is mainly attributable to cardiovascular events before reaching end-stage renal disease. In this paper, we focus our analyses on renal function before end-stage renal disease, as seen through the lens of pharmacogenomics and human genomic variation. We herein synthesize the recent evidence linking selected Very Important Pharmacogenes (VIP) to renal function, blood pressure and salt-sensitivity in humans, and ways in which these insights might inform rational personalized therapeutics. Notably, we highlight and present the rationale for three applications that we consider as important and actionable therapeutic and preventive focus areas in renal pharmacogenomics: 1) ACE inhibitors, as a confirmed application, 2) VDR agonists, as a promising application, and 3) moderate dietary salt intake, as a suggested novel application. Additionally, we emphasize the putative contributions of gene-environment interactions, discuss the implications of these findings to treat and prevent hypertension and CKD. Finally, we conclude with a strategic agenda and vision required to accelerate advances in this under-studied field of renal pharmacogenomics with vast significance for global public health.

Abstract
The cytochrome P450 family 3 subfamily A polypeptide 5 (CYP3A5) gene has been implicated in the regulation of blood pressure (BP) and thus, may serve as a potential risk factor for the development of hypertension. However, current results regarding the association between CYP3A5 single nucleotide polymorphisms and BP/hypertension have been inconsistent. In this study, we performed a meta-analysis to evaluate the association between the CYP3A5 rs776746 (6986G>A) polymorphism and BP/hypertension. Ten studies (representing 2799 cases and 6794 controls) were included to determine the association of this single nucleotide polymorphism with hypertension, and 12 studies (9076 subjects) were included to determine the association of this single nucleotide polymorphism with BP. Overall, no associations were observed between the rs776746 polymorphism and BP/hypertension. In subgroup analysis, CYP3A5*1 carriers had lower systolic BP, compared with non-carriers in white populations (mean difference=-1.322, 95% confidence interval -2.401 to -0.242 mm Hg, P=0.016). This meta-analysis suggested a modestly significant association between the CYP3A5 rs776746 polymorphism and systolic BP in white populations. Given the limited sample size, additional studies are necessary to investigate the role of CYP3A5 in the regulation of BP and the pathogenesis of hypertension.

Abstract
The calcineurin inhibitors ciclosporin (cyclosporine) and tacrolimus are immunosuppressant drugs used for the prevention of organ rejection following transplantation. Both agents are metabolic substrates for cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A enzymes - in particular, CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 - and are transported out of cells via P-glycoprotein (ABCB1). Several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been identified in the genes encoding for CYP3A4, CYP3A5 and P-glycoprotein, including CYP3A4 -392A>G (rs2740574), CYP3A5 6986A>G (rs776746), ABCB1 3435C>T (rs1045642), ABCB1 1236C>T (rs1128503) and ABCB1 2677G>T/A (rs2032582). The aim of this review is to provide the clinician with an extensive overview of the recent literature on the known effects of these SNPs on the pharmacodynamics of ciclosporin and tacrolimus in solid-organ transplant recipients. Literature searches were performed and all relevant primary research articles were critiqued and summarized. There is no evidence that the CYP3A4 -392A>G SNP has an effect on the pharmacodynamics of either ciclosporin or tacrolimus; however, studies have been limited. For patients prescribed ciclosporin, the CYP3A5 6986A>G SNP may influence long-term survival, possibly because of a different metabolite pattern over time. This SNP has no clear association with acute rejection during ciclosporin therapy. Despite a strong association between the CYP3A5 6986A>G SNP and tacrolimus pharmacokinetics, there is no consistent evidence of organ rejection as a result of genotype-related under-immunosuppression. This is likely to be explained by the practice of performing tacrolimus dose adjustments in the early phase after transplantation. The effect of the CYP3A5 6986A>G SNP on ciclosporin- and tacrolimus-related nephrotoxicity and development of hypertension is unclear. Similarly, the ABCB1 SNPs exert no clear influence on either ciclosporin or tacrolimus pharmacodynamics, with studies showing conflicting results in regard to the main parameters of acute rejection and nephrotoxicity. In kidney transplant patients, consideration of the donor kidney genotype rather than the recipient genotype may be more important when assessing development of nephrotoxicity. Studies with low patient numbers may account for many inconsistent results to date. The majority of studies have only evaluated the effects of individual SNPs; however, multiple polymorphisms may interact to produce a combined effect. Further haplotype analyses are likely to be useful, particularly ones that consider both donor and recipient genotype. The effects of polymorphisms associated with the pregnane X receptor, organic anion transporting polypeptides, calcineurin inhibitor target sites and immune response pathways need to be further investigated. A large standardized clinical trial is now required to evaluate the relationship between the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of CYP3A5-mediated tacrolimus metabolism, particularly in regard to the outcomes of acute rejection and nephrotoxicity. It is not yet clear whether pharmacogenetic profiling of calcineurin inhibitors will be a useful clinical tool for personalizing immunosuppressant therapy.

Abstract
Hypertension is the first single modifiable cause of disease burden worldwide. Genes encoding proteins that are involved in the metabolism (CYP3A5) and transport (ABCB1) of drugs and hormones might contribute to blood pressure control in humans. Indeed, recent data have suggested that CYP3A5 and ABCB1 gene polymorphisms are associated with blood pressure in the rat as well as in humans. Interestingly, the effects of these genes on blood pressure appear to be modified by dietary salt intake. This review summarizes what is known regarding the relationships of the ABCB1 and CYP3A5 genes with blood pressure, and discusses the potential underlying mechanisms of the association. If the role of these genes in blood pressure control is confirmed in other populations and other ethnic groups, these findings would point toward a new pathway for blood pressure control in humans.

Abstract
CONTEXT Hormone therapy increases the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) among postmenopausal women. This effect may be modulated by the expression of cytochromes P450 3A5 (CYP3A5) and 1A2 (CYP1A2) which are involved in the hepatic metabolism of estrogens. OBJECTIVE The objective was to investigate the impact of CYP3A5 and CYP1A2 genetic polymorphisms on the association of VTE with hormone therapy. DESIGN We conducted a case-control study. SETTING This study was conducted in eight French hospital centers and in the general population. PATIENTS CYP3A5 and CYP1A2 genotypes were evaluated among 195 cases with a first documented episode of idiopathic VTE and 533 controls matched for center, age, and admission date. OUTCOME MEASURE The outcome measure was hormone therapy by route of estrogen administration. RESULTS Overall, oral but not transdermal estrogen increased VTE risk [odds ratio (OR) = 4.5, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 2.6-7.6, and OR = 1.2, 95% CI = 0.8-1.8, respectively]. The allele frequency of CYP3A5*1 was 9 and 10% among cases and controls (OR = 1.0; 95% CI = 0.6-1.5) and that of CYP1A2*1F was 72 and 71% among cases and controls (OR = 1.5; 95% CI = 0.8-2.8). Compared with nonusers, OR for VTE in users of oral estrogen was 3.8 (95% CI = 2.1-6.7) among patients without CYP3A5*1 allele and 30.0 (95% CI = 4.4-202.9) among patients with this allele (test for interaction P = 0.04). By contrast, there was no significant interaction between CYP3A5*1 allele and transdermal estrogen on VTE risk. There is no interaction between CYP1A2 genetic polymorphism and hormone therapy on VTE risk. CONCLUSIONS Women with CYP3A5*1 allele using oral estrogen can define a subgroup at high VTE risk. Additional data are needed to assess the relevance of this genetic biomarker in the medical management of menopause.

Abstract
In vitro effects of electromagnetic fields appear to be related to the type of electromagnetic field applied. Previously, we showed that human osteoblasts display effects of BEMER type electromagnetic field (BTEMF) on gene regulation. Here, we analyze effects of BTEMF on gene expression in human mesenchymal stem cells and chondrocytes. Primary mesenchymal stem cells from bone marrow and the chondrocyte cell line C28I2 were stimulated 5 times at 12-h intervals for 8 min each with BTEMF. RNA from treated and control cells was analyzed for gene expression using the affymetrix chip HG-U133A. A limited number of regulated gene products from both cell types mainly affect cell metabolism and cell matrix structure. There was no increased expression of cancer-related genes. RT-PCR analysis of selected transcripts partly confirmed array data. Results indicate that BTEMF in human mesenchymal stem cells and chondrocytes provide the first indications to understanding therapeutic effects achieved with BTEMF stimulation.

Abstract
A polymorphism in the cytochrome P450 3A CYP3A5 enzyme has been implicated in BP (blood pressure) control and arterial hypertension. Carriers of the CYP3A5*1 allele had high, whereas homozygous carriers of the CYP3A5*3 allele exhibit low, CYP3A5 expression in the kidney, where CYP3A5 represents the major CYP3A enzyme. The aim of the present study was to investigate the association of the CYP3A5*1 allele with BP, arterial hypertension, LVM [(left ventricular) mass] and LV geometry in a large Caucasian-population-based cohort. We compared BP, LVM and the prevalence of hypertension between carriers (CYP3A5*1/*1 and CYP3A5*1/*3 genotypes) and non-carriers (CYP3A5*3/*3 genotype) of the CYP3A5*1 allele in the echocardiographic substudy of the third MONICA (MONItoring trends and determinants in CArdiovascular disease) Augsburg survey. After exclusion of 269 individuals who were taking antihypertensive medication, 530 women and 554 men were available for analysis, revealing allele frequencies of 5.8 and 94.2% for the CYP3A5*1 and CYP3A5*3 alleles respectively. Overall, the presence of the CYP3A5*1 allele exhibited no effect on systolic or diastolic BP in either gender. One-third of the individuals in this cohort were hypertensive (BP > or =140/90 mmHg), and the genotype distribution between normotensive and hypertensive individuals revealed no association between CYP3A5*1 and hypertension after adjustment for age, BMI and gender (odds ratio, 1.02; P=0.92). Moreover, no effect of CYP3A5*1 on LVM, thickness of the septal and posterior wall and LV end-diastolic diameter was found. We conclude that CYP3A5*1 exhibits no significant effect on BP, LVM and LV geometry in the KORA/MONICA echocardiographic substudy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Information is lacking on whether the CYP3A5 genotype affects the disposition and effects of midazolam during the long-term intensive care sedation of patients. This study was undertaken to estimate whether the CYP3A5 genotype can explain a relevant portion of pharmacokinetic interindividual variability. METHODS We determined the CYP3A5 genotype in 71 Caucasian patients who underwent long-term sedation during intensive care treatment. We then assessed the relation between the genotype and both the plasma concentrations of midazolam and 1'-OH-midazolam in 645 plasma samples and the simultaneously estimated Ramsay sedation score, both of which were recorded during routine midazolam drug monitoring. RESULTS Eight patients had the CYP3A5*1/*3 genotype and 63 patients the CYP3A5*3/*3 genotype. The concentration-dose ratio [C/D; plasma concentration of midazolam (ng/ml) divided by the rate of infusion (mg/h); expressed as the mean (95% confidence interval)] was 87.4 (70.8, 108.9) for the *3/*3 patients and 79.0 (48.9, 129.0) for *1/*3 patients. The corresponding data for infusion rate (IR; in mg/h), Ramsay score (RS) and the ratio 1'-OH-midazolam concentration/midazolam concentration (ROH) for *3/*3 and *1/*3 patients were IR 7.4 (6.2, 8.6) vs. 11.4 (4.9, 17.9), RS 5.4 (5.2, 5.6) vs. 5.3 (4.2, 6.0) and ROH 0.11 (0.09, 0.13) vs. 0.17 (0.11, 0.26), respectively. CONCLUSIONS The CYP3A5*1/*3 genotype did not lead to an apparently lower midazolam concentration/dose ratio or Ramsay score values. As the present sedation procedure during intensive care therapy may be described as a physician closed-loop titration towards Ramsay scores of 4 +/- 1, our data do not indicate that prior determination of the genotype will result in better care or economic savings.

Abstract
The permeability-glycoprotein efflux-transporter encoded by the multidrug resistance 1 (ABCB1) gene and the cytochromes P450 3A4/5 encoded by the CYP3A4/5 genes are known to interact in the transport and metabolism of many drugs. Recent data have shown that the CYP3A5 genotypes influence blood pressure and that permeability-glycoprotein activity might influence the activity of the renin-angiotensin system. Hence, these 2 genes may contribute to blood pressure regulation in humans. We analyzed the association of variants of the ABCB1 and CYP3A5 genes with ambulatory blood pressure, plasma renin activity, plasma aldosterone, endogenous lithium clearance, and blood pressure response to treatment in 72 families (373 individuals; 55% women; mean age: 46 years) of East African descent. The ABCB1 and CYP3A5 genes interact with urinary sodium excretion in their effect on ambulatory blood pressure (daytime systolic: P=0.05; nighttime systolic and diastolic: P<0.01), suggesting a gene-gene-environment interaction. The combined action of these genes is also associated with postproximal tubular sodium reabsorption, plasma renin activity, plasma aldosterone, and with an altered blood pressure response to the angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor lisinopril (P<0.05). This is the first reported association of the ABCB1 gene with blood pressure in humans and demonstration that genes encoding for proteins metabolizing and transporting drugs and endogenous substrates contribute to blood pressure regulation.

Abstract
In the CYP3A5 gene, the A>G (*3) and G>A (*6) polymorphisms result in severely decreased expression of CYP3A5 enzyme relative to a normal functional allele (*1). We sought to determine if the CYP3A5 genetic polymorphisms were associated with level of blood pressure (BP), risk of hypertension (HTN), and the antihypertensive response to verapamil. A total of 676 normotensive and hypertensive participants (mean age 49+/-8.2 years) from the Hypertension Genes study and 722 patients (mean age 66+/-9 years) from the International Verapamil/Trandolapril Study Genetic Substudy (INVEST-GENES) were genotyped for CYP3A5 to test for associations with BP, HTN, and in the latter cohort, antihypertensive response to verapamil. CYP3A5 haplotypes were determined using PHASE 2, with any allele containing either (*3) or (*6) designated as non functional. In the HTN genes population, there were no significant differences based on the number of functional CYP3A5 alleles, in systolic blood pressure (SBP) or diastolic blood pressure (DBP) among the normotensive whites or blacks (all P> or =0.70) or in allele frequency between normotensives and hypertensives. In INVEST-GENES, when controlled for baseline BP, race, age, and gender, untreated BP in carriers versus non carriers of a CYP3A5 functional allele was 158.2+/-13.7 and 154.8+/-13.7 (P=0.061), respectively. CYP3A5 functional allele status was marginally associated with the SBP response to verapamil in blacks (P=0.075) and Hispanics (P=0.056), but not in whites (P=0.40), with the effect being largely driven by higher SBP in the carriers of two functional alleles. There was no association with DBP response and CYP3A5 allele status. CYP3A5 genotype does not contribute importantly to BP or risk of HTN, but may influence response to calcium channel blockers in populations in which carrier status of two functional alleles is common.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Aldosterone plays a major role in the development of both hypertension and heart failure. As aldosterone is a substrate of the ABCB1 (P-glycoprotein) efflux transporter, whose expression and activity has been shown to be linked to the ABCB1 3435C-->T polymorphism, we tested the impact of the ABCB1 3435C-->T polymorphism on aldosterone disposition, blood pressure, cardiac structure, and kidney function. METHODS A homogenous group of 116 young, white male Caucasian individuals with normal or mildlyto moderately elevated, but never treated blood pressure was included. Blood pressure was compared between individuals with ABCB1 3435 CC, CT, and TT genotypes. Moreover, genotype-dependent differences in basal and angiotensin II-stimulated serum aldosterone, cardiac structure, and kidney function were evaluated. RESULTS Of the 116 volunteers, 35 had the CC, 51 the CT and 30 the TT genotype. At baseline, no significant genotype-dependent differences in serum aldosterone were observed. After infusion of angiotensin II, the increase in aldosterone serum concentration was significantly higher in the TT group than that in the CT and CC groups (CC +11+/-35, CT +18+/-48, TT +45+/-50 pg/ml, P=0.012). Systolic and diastolic blood pressure, left ventricular structure, and function and baseline renal function were not significantly different. After additional oral sodium load (5 g/day over 1 week) urinary sodium excretion was found to be increased in individuals with the CC or CT genotype only but not in those with the TT genotype (CC +71+/-83, CT +52+/-114, TT -11+/-98 mmol/day, P=0.005). CONCLUSION The present study demonstrates that the ABCB1 3435 genotype affects angiotensin II-stimulated serum aldosterone levels and salt-stimulated urinary sodium excretion. Although blood pressure and cardiac structure were unchanged in this young study population, our findings indicate a new link between MDR1 genotype and the aldosterone system in humans.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a human health crisis that remains the leading cause of death worldwide. The cytochrome P450 (CYP) class of enzymes are key metabolizers of both xenobiotics and endobiotics. Many CYP enzyme families have been identified in the heart, endothelium and smooth muscle of blood vessels. Furthermore, mounting evidence points to the role of endogenous CYP metabolites, such as epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs), hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids (HETEs), prostacyclin (PGI(2)), aldosterone, and sex hormones, in the maintenance of cardiovascular health. Emerging science and the development of genetic screening have provided us with information on the differences in CYP expression among populations and groups of individuals. With this information, a link between CYP expression and activity and CVD, such as hypertension, coronary artery disease (CAD), myocardial infarction, heart failure, stroke, and cardiomyopathy and arrhythmias, has been established. In fact many currently used therapeutic modalities in CVD owe their therapeutic efficacy to their effect on CYP metabolites. Thus, the evidence for the involvement of CYP in CVD is numerous. Concentrating on treatment modalities that target the CYP pathway makes ethical sense for the affected individuals and decreases the socioeconomic burden of this disease. However, more research is needed to allow the integration of this information into a clinical setting.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4 is responsible for most CYP3A-mediated drug metabolism but the minor isoforms CYP3A5, CYP3A7 and CYP3A43 also contribute. CYP3A5 is the best studied of the minor CYP3A isoforms. It is well established that only approximately 20% of livers express CYP3A5. The most common reason for the absence of expression is a splice site mutation. The frequency of variant alleles shows interethnic differences, with the wild-type CYP3A5*1 allele more common in Africans than Caucasians and Asians. In individuals who express CYP3A5, the percentage contributed to total hepatic CYP3A by this isoform is still unclear, with estimates ranging from 17% to 50%. CYP3A5 is also expressed in a range of extrahepatic tissues. Only limited information is available on the regulation of CYP3A5 expression but it appears to be inducible via the glucocorticoid receptor, pregnane X receptor and constitutive androstane receptor-beta, as for CYP3A4. Although information on the substrate specificity of CYP3A5 is limited compared with CYP3A4, there have been a number of recent pharmacokinetic studies on a small range of substrates in individuals of known genotype to investigate the contribution of CYP3A5. In the case of midazolam, ciclosporin, nifedipine and docetaxel, clearance by individuals with a CYP3A5-expressing genotype did not differ from that for nonexpressors, but in the case of tacrolimus, eight independent studies have demonstrated faster clearance by those carrying one or two CYP3A5*1 alleles. This may reflect faster turnover of tacrolimus by CYP3A5 than the other substrates. CYP3A5 genotype may affect cancer susceptibility. Certain combined CYP3A4/CYP3A5 haplotypes show differential susceptibility to prostate cancer and there is a nonsignificant increase in the risk of small-cell lung cancer for a CYP3A5*1/*1 genotype. Females positive for CYP3A5*1 appear to reach puberty earlier, which may affect breast cancer risk. CYP3A5*1 homozygotes may have higher systolic blood pressure.CYP3A7 is predominantly expressed in fetal liver but is also found in some adult livers and extrahepatically. The molecular basis for expression in adult liver relates to upstream polymorphisms, which appear to increase homology to CYP3A4 and make regulation of expression more similar. CYP3A7 has a specific role in hydroxylation of retinoic acid and 16alpha-hydroxylation of steroids, and is therefore of relevance both to normal development and carcinogenesis.CYP3A43 is the most recently discovered CYP3A isoform. In addition to a low level of expression in liver, it is expressed in prostate and testis. Its substrate specificity is currently unclear. Polymorphisms predicting absence of active enzyme have been identified.

Abstract
Due to their enormous substrate spectrum CYP3A4, -3A5 and -3A7 constitute the most important drug-metabolising enzyme subfamily in humans. CYP3As are expressed predominantly, but not exclusively, in the liver and intestine, where they participate in the metabolism of 45 - 60% of currently used drugs and many other compounds such as steroids and carcinogens. CYP3A expression and activity vary interindividually due to a combination of genetic and nongenetic factors such as hormone and health status, and the impact of environmental stimuli. Over the past several years, genetic determinants have been identified for much of the variable expression of CYP3A5 and -3A7, but not for CYP3A4. Using these markers, an effect of CYP3A5 expression status has been demonstrated beyond doubt for therapies with the immunosuppressive drug tacrolimus. Further associations are likely to emerge for drugs metabolised predominantly by CYP3A5 or -3A7, especially for individuals or tissues with concomitant low expression of CYP3A4. However, as exemplified by the controversial association between CYP3A4*1B and prostate cancer, the detection of clinical effects of CYP3A gene variants will be difficult. The most important underlying problems are the continuing absence of activity markers specific for CYP3A4 and the strong contribution of nongenetic factors to CYP3A variability.
